This has to be the best bar in Boston. Excellent service from your man Fitz behind the bar. Great authentic Southie atmosphere. But remember, if you want to go and get a Burger King to bring and eat in the bar, you need to get one for the bar tender too.

Food: 4

We were here for the South Boston St. Patrick’s Day parade and had a blast, not a big place so they hit capacity quick but we had a blast. Good variety of drinks and the best bar tender!

Poor service, I was told “you’re not part of this bar” in a discriminatory way, not accepting my cash. Terrible experience

Ignored on purpose at a nearly empty bar and then had my change more or less thrown at me. Definitely not coming back.

This bar is close to where one of my friends lives and when we stopped in after work we all agreed we wanted to make it our local bar. It was quiet, the bartender was very nice and there was hardly anyone there. The bartender gave us local take out menus so we could eat - they don't serve food. I like being able to have a drink and hear my friends instead of shouting over loud music. If that is your scene, go to Shea's. I'm embarrassed to admit that despite our initial affection, it hasn't become our local bar. There are too many other options with good atmosphere and a shorter walk.

Another pretty non-descript tavern in Southie... stop in, say hi to Bubba (the owner), get a beer (no taps), and keep moving... there is lots more to see in Southie.
